Notes:
- ^ Supporters of Standard Liège prevented the start of the game by blocking Standard's team bus's departure. On 28 May 2024, the Royal Belgian Football Association ruled that Standard had done too little to prevent this situation.[16] As a result, the match was not replayed and Westerlo was awarded a 5–0 forfeit win.
